Can I share my surname with my sponsored child?
Please continue to write letters to your sponsored child. It means so much and is a great way to build your relationship and learn more about each other. Just remember, as you sign your letters, to please use your chosen “preferred name” instead of your full name.
For example, you may prefer to be called Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Or you may prefer to be called Jane and John. However, we ask that you do not include your full name: Jane and John Smith. (Your preferred name will be printed at the top of your letter-writing sheet, to guide you.)
